Son (half asleep): “Hang on I gotta find something. I forget what it’s called… the head rester thing.”

Crimson: “You mean a pillow?”

Son: “Yeah, that.”

Crimson: No, it was writing to Amnesty International to help free the elves.

Crimson: Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen, Rudolph, Olive, Bob, Gary, Susan from Marketing, Carlos, that one that hangs out by the copier machine telling the same joke over and over while not realizing his fly is open and everyone heard that exact same joke on SNL last week. It wasn’t funny then Denny and it is less funny now!! Go back to your cubicle and eat the egg salad sandwich your 87 years old mother made you!

Crimson: In high school I fell for the acid wash denim jacket trend with the long leather tassels. Spectacular fail I must add. For some reason when I think back on that, the image of a Pterodactyl pops into my head.

Random: I tried a trampoline fitness class at an indoor trampoline park. Because of all my wipe-outs I haven’t laughed that hard in a long time. I am definitely going again.

Random: I got carried away with the subscription boxes and ordered one from Kiwi Crate, OwlCrate, Geek Fuel, FabFitFun, TopBox, and Loot Vault. Fortunately I was able to track down some good coupon codes to get them at discounted prices. I received emails that the Loot Crate and OwlCrate have shipped so far. Can’t wait do some unboxing videos and open them !!!

One of the focuses in the videos will be value for money. I am not impressed by brand names. I am looking for good quality products that will fair well over time and that I will actually use (or display in the case of geek items).

Merry Geekmas!

I will give one out today.

Random: I have been wanting to order a subscription box from Loot Crate for quite sometime but was concerned about value for money especially since it is in American dollars which the exchange rate is awful plus extra shipping costs for Canadians. They had a really good sale on for the holidays for some of their previous Crates that didn’t sell out as well as a deal on a new Crate so I ordered a few and am excitedly looking forward to when they arrive. I may do some unboxing videos on my YouTube channel since I haven’t really used it for anything.
